+chdir({dir} [, {scope}]) *chdir()*
+ Changes the current working directory to {dir}. The scope of
+ the change is determined as follows:
+ If {scope} is not present, the current working directory is
+ changed to the scope of the current directory:
+ - If the window local directory (|:lcd|) is set, it
+ changes the current working directory for that scope.
+ - Otherwise, if the tab page local directory (|:tcd|) is
+ set, it changes the current directory for that scope.
+ - Otherwise, changes the global directory for that scope.
+
+ If {scope} is present, changes the current working directory
+ for the specified scope:
+ "window" Changes the window local directory. |:lcd|
+ "tabpage" Changes the tab page local directory. |:tcd|
+ "global" Changes the global directory. |:cd|
+
{dir} must be a String.
If successful, returns the previous working directory. Pass
this to another chdir() to restore the directory.
